Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d)N/AIntel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) continues f... morerom the existing support for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium processor (VT-i) virtualization adding new support for I/O-device virtualization. Intel VT-d can help end users improve security and reliability of the systems and also improve performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments.N/AN/AIntel Virtualization Technology (VT-x)N/AIntel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple virtual platforms. It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions.N/AN/AIntel 64N/AIntel 64 architecture delivers 64-bit computing on server workstation desktop and mobile platforms when combined with supporting software. Intel 64 architecture improves performance by allowing systems to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory.N/AN/ACacheN/ACPU Cache is an area of fast memory located on the processor. Intel Smart Cache refers to the architecture that allows all cores to dynamically share access to the last level cache.N/AN/AIntel AES New InstructionsN/AIntel AES New Instructions (Intel AES-NI) are a set of instructions that enable fast and secure data encryption and decryption. AES-NI are valuable for a wide range of cryptographic applications for example: applications that perform bulk encryption/decryption authentication random number generation and authenticated encryption.N/AN/AIdle StatesN/AIdle States (C-states) are used to save power when the processor is idle. C0 is the operational state meaning that the CPU is doing useful work. C1 is the first idle state C2 the second and so on where more power saving actions are taken for numerically higher C-states.N/AN/AIntel Turbo Boost TechnologyN/AIntel Turbo Boost Technology dynamically increases the processor's frequency as needed by taking advantage of thermal and power headroom to give you a burst of speed when you need it and increased energy efficiency when you dont.N/AN/AMax Turbo FrequencyN/AMax Turbo Frequency is the maximum single-core frequency at which the processor is capable of operating using Intel Turbo Boost Technology and if present Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 and Intel Thermal Velocity Boost. Frequency is typically measured in gigahertz (GHz) or billion cycles per second.N/AN/AExecute Disable BitN/AExecute Disable Bit is a hardware-based security feature that can reduce exposure to viruses and malicious-code attacks and prevent harmful software from executing and propagating on the server or network.N/AN/AIntel Hyper-Threading TechnologyN/AIntel Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel HT Technology) delivers two processing threads per physical core. Highly threaded applications can get more work done in parallel completing tasks sooner.N/AN/AInstruction SetN/AAn instruction set refers to the basic set of commands and

Intel Core i9-12900KF Desktop Processor 16 Cores 5.2 GHz Alder Lake LGA170

Divide and conquer. Intel's new performance hybrid architecture integrates two core families into a single CPU, keeping every... morething in your gaming universe running smoothly. 6 Performance-cores - P-cores are built for performance across single and lightly-threaded workloads, enhancing activities like gaming and productivity. 4 Efficient-cores - E-cores are optimized for multi-threaded performance, minimizing interruptions from secondary tasks. Intel? Thread Director - Prioritizes and manages workloads, sending tasks to the best core for the job. Performance beyond the cores. The new processor architecture is also compatible with the latest platform innovations, giving you performance improvements throughout your PC. Ready for what's next - Support for PCIe Gen 5 and DDR5 for high-performance components like memory and graphics. Best-in-class connectivity -Thunderbolt? 4 and Intel? Killer? Wi-Fi 6/6E (Gig ) deliver fast transfer speeds and connections to peripherals.5 Streamlined overclocking - Separate overclocking controls for both types of cores gives you nuanced personalization. Revolutionary performance and multitasking. With the highest clock speeds and groundbreaking new architecture, you'll be able to push your gameplay to new heights while secondary apps run seamlessly in the background.

Smart Cache: 30MB Motherboard compatibility: 600 series Total CPU PCIe lanes: 20 Intel?s 12th generation CPUs mark a shift in the company?s approach to processor design. It describes Alder Lake as a ?hybrid? architecture with Alder new chips featuring a combination of ?P-cores? and ?E-cores? rather than the standard homogenous core layout we?re accustomed to with previous generations. P-cores Short for performance cores, are designed for tasks such as gaming and productivity workloads and are the closest thing to the standard core model. E-cores Short for efficient cores, handle background tasks while running at a lower clock speed with lower power consumption. The new chips will be the first to support DDR5 RAM and PCIe 5 which should make them perfect partners for the best gaming RAM and best SSDs of the future. 12th Gen Intel? Core? i9-12900KF unlocked desktop processor, without processor graphics. Featuring Intel? Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 and PCIe Gen 5.0 & 4.0 support, DDR5 and DDR4 support, unlocked 12th Gen Intel? Core? desktop processors are optimized for enthusiast gamers and serious creators and help deliver high performance overclocking for an added boost. Discrete graphics required. Thermal solution NOT included in the box. Compatible with 600 series chipset based motherboards Socket - 1700 Base Frequency
